Sliding wardrobes add value both with function and style. Take your pick from our comprehensive guide here.
Over two decades ago, the movie Sliding Doors, starring Peter Howitt and Gwyneth Paltrow brought the term ‘sliding doors moments’ to our vocabulary. These are seemingly inconsequential decisions or moments that change the course of one’s life. Making décor choices can be life-changing, albeit in a less dramatic fashion. Practical design choices can make the quality of everyday life better and aesthetically appealing décor can change the energy of a space leading to a less tangible but significant impact.
Wardrobes with sliding doors are one such décor choice which can add tremendous value, in terms of function and style. Since such doors slide on channels, they don’t need any space to open out like swinging doors, making them an ideal storage solution for small bedrooms and rooms or hallways with limited space. Moreover, with the range of materials, finishes, and patterns that sliding doors are available in or can be designed in, the aesthetic features of the furniture are practically limitless.
